Image gallery with multiple sets?

Permalink
Hi

I am pretty new at concrete, and I am trying to figure out a way of making an image gallery, that my clients can update (add images) to very easily!

Is there any image gallery where i just can add a new set to the file manager, and this new set then is automaticly added to the image gallery? or something like that?

Hello,

Many galleries in the marketplace work with sets. My add-on Touch Gallery for instance (http://www.concrete5.org/marketplace/addons/touch-gallery/) (shameless plug :)

None that I know of however will automatically use the sets, you would have to select the set from the edit screen of the add-on. Once that's done however adding files to that set will automatically make the gallery use those new files.

Now your title asks about "multiple sets" No gallery does that YET. I am about to submit an advanced version of my Touch Gallery add-on that will do just that. Count a week or 2 to have it in the PRB.

Hi

And thanks for the fast answer :)

I will try out that gallery - I just want to make it as simple as possible for those who are updating the page - thats why I want to avoid making new pages everytime they upload a new gallery.

Thanks again, I will defenetly try the new gallery when it´s finished.

You could use my Uber List addon (with Magic Data) to list the files in multiple sets and then show a grid of thumbnails each with a fancybox link. It would need a little bit of php to load fancybox.js and a snippet of jQuery in an html block to kick off the fancybox. I could advise on both of those if you decide to go that way and need help.
